I got saddle brown.

Maybe he has contacts for staff sales perhaps. Open box product being moved on cheap to staff if they want it?

I don’t think they hold inventory there these days, but I know in our company, obsolete and old stock is written down dramatically and sold off to any buyers who fancy taking a chance on moving it on themselves.

I’m in Ireland too, I had really fast delivery!
You got the one with the stitching (3rd generation) ?

With my old saddle brown I am going to do an experiment to get out darker. IMO Dark brown is one of the colors missing in the complete Apple band programme

Yes I did, it looks great.

I agree, a darker brown would be good also.

Agree a dark brown is oddly absent from the classic buckle lineup - I mean it’s a bit more “classic” than pink and light blue etc.

I have a nice brown leather strap I use with custom SS adapters. Love if for the days with blue shirts (I have a LOT of blue shirts so great to have both Saddle and dark brown)

Well this is definitely not an experiment for the faint hearted: teaser :)

I ordered a 42mm saddle brown classic buckle on ebay last night for $125. I'm going to use it on my new 44mm series 4 stainless steel watch.
